Yes, dolphins are magnificent. I think they are so efficient that hunting for food doesn’t take most of their day, so they have lots of time for play.
But until I got in the water with them, I wasn’t sure if they’d ignore me, body slam me, bite me, or what. They were quite rough with each other, jockeying for position and bumping each other, but they never touched me.
Also, I had two trolling lines out, making three ropes / cords in the water, and they didn’t concern the dolphins in the least. For that matter, they can swim very close to spinning props, and never touch them. They are masters of their realm (at least until orcas show up.)
Amazing what goes on in their huge brains. It is great you could share their world with them. Just amazing. What beautiful creatures. God outdid himself.
